I'm guessing he must have been pretty close for the police to seize his Mavic, a big no no even before the new rules were put in place here. With up to a $15000 fine he must have been a commercial flyer though? Since the max is $3000 for recreational. Not good to be flying close to other aircraft regardless, sadly you can be rest assured our Transport Minister will get hold of this and use it to further his agenda against drones. He's already posting National Enquirer type headlines on his personal twitter. We're so screwed here...
Didn't see this before I made the thread asking if people in Canada were actually being charged, I guess this would be a yes.
